    Would you or wouldn't you?

    Thanks very much for your feedback folks. They seem quite expensive too. I think I might leave them.

    Would you or wouldn't you?

    G'day fellas, I hope you're all well. I came across these yesterday and thought I would seek your collective opinion on them...

    Trouble Code - PO431 warm up catalyst efficiency - below threshold

    Mine’s come back! Where’s the sponge filter you’re referring to? I might try the same job.

    Trouble Code - PO431 warm up catalyst efficiency - below threshold

    Yep, I can definitely hear the air pump running. Funny thing though, I was just speaking with my friend Nino (I've mentioned him before on here - probably the best equipped and most knowledgeable Italian car guy in Hobart) and he asked me about the fuel I had been using? I normally us 95...

    Trouble Code - PO431 warm up catalyst efficiency - below threshold

    It’s fixed itself??? One morning last week the light simply wasn’t there? I’ve put the obd reader back on and it is showing no error codes so I’m hoping for the best but I can’t help being a bit unconvinced. It’s due to go in for a service shortly so I’ll have Nino check it out. It does have me...

    Trouble Code - PO431 warm up catalyst efficiency - below threshold

    Ok, thanks for your thoughts everyone. I’ll try to have a poke around over the weekend and report back. I know the jet engine sound (had wondered what it was!) and Matt, I’ll check If I can see what you mean although it is sounding as if this one might be a little beyond my pay grade. Geoff...

    Trouble Code - PO431 warm up catalyst efficiency - below threshold

    Thanks Catman but you’ve got me guessing? Sorry to sound completely clueless but where’s the secondary air pump in the exhaust system and which solenoid valves? (I don’t have active exhaust valves btw) Many thanks again, Kim.

    Trouble Code - PO431 warm up catalyst efficiency - below threshold

    Hi fellas, I’ve been struggling with this one for the last week. I’ve cleared it a couple of times but it keeps coming back, so I guess it’s real. The online research I’ve carried out suggests that one of my “cats” has failed and needs replacing (in which case I’d probably replace both sides...

    OMG! What have I done? What is this?

    G'day fellas, hope you're all well. The car has been running a treat so I've been a bit quiet of late but last weekend, with a car full of teenagers, I ran over a section of disturbed tarmac and bottomed out. This, I later discovered is the consequence. Can someone please tell me what it is...

    Coolant in the foot well? Help please?

    Hi Masera, apologies for not getting back to you sooner. The core is great! Problem solved. As for the cock-up the bloke that installed it made of the job - well that's a story for another day.

    Coolant in the foot well? Help please?

    Hi Mav, This jobs too big and time consuming for me. I'm having the young bloke who did the heater fan do it for me. Having dismantled the dash once before and getting it back together with no parts left over, I reckon he's good enough to do it again! Hope you're well. KM.

    Coolant in the foot well? Help please?

    Fantastic! Thanks so much. Looks like I'm good to go. The job's being done on Monday. Looking forward to it. I've now got some "dampness" in the passenger footwell too! Cheers, Kim.

    Coolant in the foot well? Help please?

    Hi again fellas, well here it is. Arrived in the mail yesterday. I opted for what I hope will be a long term solution at somewhat greater expense (https://www.eeuroparts.com/Parts/5206/Heater-Core-Late-Style-5046362/) although, it does look to be longer than the one in the image of the newly...

    New Key

    Thank you Hey Parisien, I had a similar problem and just employed your advice for the re-programming. It worked a treat and I now have two working keys again! Thanks very much. Kim.
